How was the shoot? Have you ever been on a double date like that?No, but I’d love to. I don’t want to meet a guy at, like, a club. Not that I can get into one. I’m still a teenager! I want to go on a nice little double date with my best friend.

Can you tell the Stenmark twins apart?Yeah, Zac has longer hair.

Speaking of Zacs, we hear you’re a Zac Efron fan.When I was little, I saw him in High School Musical and was like, ‘We’re going to get married!’ Then, a couple of years later, we were vacationing on the same island, and we ended up in the same Zumba class. On New Year’s Eve, he asked me to dance, and I was like, ‘Gaaaah!’

Do you still want to marry him when you turn 21?How old will he be? Thirty seven?

Sounds about right. Where did you grow up?|I was born in Manhattan, but raised in Bridgehampton and Sag Harbor. My mom has wanted to move back to the city at times, but I’ve always said, ‘no.’ I like being able to breathe! It doesn’t smell like gas out here.

Did you always want to model?Not at all. My mom was always just my mom. I didn’t really think about how unique it is that her career has lasted for 45 years. I never really thought of doing it myself until I turned 14 when everyone kept asking me why I wasn’t doing it. I’m so happy I tried it. It’s fun! When I was younger I wanted to be a comedian, but I realized not everyone thought I was funny.

Don’t give up so easily! How else do you stay busy?I’m interested in photography, so I want to study it for the rest of high school and see where it takes me.

Are you a fussy eater?I’m gluten-free, and I was raised as a vegetarian. I’ve been vegan for a little over a year. It was very hard to give up cheese, but I made the decision after I went on a trip to Italy and sort of maxed out on it.
